Been a little while since we did this.

I heard Faith No More's version of War Pigs on the way home last night. It's a real kickass version that is true to the Sabbath original.

So post yer favorite cover songs here.

The Dresden Dolls cover of War Pigs is hella good, too.

The Ataris version of Don Henleys' "Boys of Summer".

Also, about 10 years ago some band named 10,000 [censored] DJ's did a great cover of Sabbaths' Supernaut- not that that song could ever be improved upon but it was a cool take.

They are censoring the word h o m o? Jesus...

that reminds me of another alternative-like band (name unknown) doing a cover of Men at Work's "Urge Overkill" - I think Colin Hay joined in for the 3rd verse....

that was damned cool. - Actually, I THINK I bought the disk - should look for it...

IIRC, that band was basically Ministry. I know, at least, Al Jorgenses was on vocals...good cover.
